Cin'Kin Gin Pumpkin

Cin'Kin Gin Pumpkin is a Belgian artisanal gin created in Ciney, in the province of Namur, by gin enthusiasts Sylvie Steutelings and Cédric Van Den Brande. Their idea was to showcase Hungarian Blue Pumpkin, a traditional variety grown locally, in a contemporary gin that reflects both regional produce and their shared passion for spirits. Distilled in small batches, Cin'Kin Gin Pumpkin has gradually established itself as a distinctive expression within the Belgian gin landscape.

At its core, this gin combines the classic character of juniper with the natural sweetness and earthy depth of Hungarian Blue Pumpkin. On the nose, tasting panels describe a dominant impression reminiscent of sage, supported by woody and musky nuances. On the palate, the attack is soft and rounded, with juniper clearly present alongside earthy and herbal notes that echo the aromatic profile. The texture is smooth, and the overall balance allows the vegetal character of the pumpkin to integrate harmoniously with the more traditional botanical register of gin.

Bottled at 43% ABV, Cin'Kin Gin Pumpkin can be enjoyed neat to appreciate its full aromatic range, over ice for a slightly more mellow profile, or paired with a neutral tonic to highlight the spicy and earthy notes. The gin has received international recognition, notably a bronze medal in the Contemporary Style Gin category at the World Gin Awards 2022. This combination of local pumpkin, carefully controlled distillation and an award-winning profile makes Cin'Kin Gin Pumpkin a singular reference for those interested in innovative Belgian gins.
